EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illustration of "La Fontaines fable The Wolf and the Stork" by Louis Maurice Boutet de Monvel. Created in 1888, this color lithograph brings to life one of Jean de La Fontaine's timeless fables. The artwork depicts a dramatic scene where a hungry wolf and an elegant stork face each other. The intricate details and vibrant colors used by Boutet de Monvel transport us into the heart of this classic tale. La Fontaine's fable tells the story of a cunning wolf who invites the stork for dinner but serves him soup in a shallow dish, making it impossible for the bird to eat. In retaliation, when it is the stork's turn to host, she serves her revenge in long-necked vessels that only she can reach. Through this enchanting image, we are reminded of the power of storytelling and its ability to convey moral lessons. It captures both the beauty and complexity found within nature while highlighting human traits such as deceitfulness and retribution. Boutet de Monvel's skillful artistry shines through every brushstroke, capturing our imagination with his attention to detail and expressive characters. This remarkable piece not only pays homage to La Fontaine's literary genius but also stands as a testament to the enduring impact of art throughout history.
